a better listener. Become
a less aggressive driver. Develop
a variety of resources for gratification in your life,

some time during the day to meditate or listen to a
relaxation CD. Get
regular exercise. Give
yourself praise and positive strokes. Look
at unavoidable stress as an avenue for growth and change. Optimize
your health with good nutrition, sleep and rest. Resist
the urge to judge or criticize. Show
kindness and consideration: open a door for someone, pick up
litter, etc. Start
off your day with breakfast. Take
a lunch break every day (preferably not at your desk). Take
deep breaths when you feel stressed. Try
to find something funny in a difficult situation. When
stressed, ask yourself, ‚ "Is this really important?"
"Will this really matter a year from now?" |

"What
is Rotary?" (part
3 of 3) Rotary is a global network of community volunteers. Rotary members are business and professional leaders who provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards, and help build goodwill and peace in the world. Some 33,000 Rotary clubs in more than 170 countries carry out service projects in their local communities and abroad to address such critical issues as poverty, health, hunger, illiteracy and the environment. Projects Peace Polio
Eradication Progress People PROGRESS: Paul P. Harris formed the world's first service club, the Rotary Club of Chicago, on 23 February 1905. The Rotary motto is Service Above Self and, as it celebrates its centennial, Rotary continues to concern itself with truth, fairness, improved relations between peoples, and world peace. During World War II, Rotary members increasingly became involved in promoting international understanding. A Rotary conference held in London in 1942 planted the seeds for the development of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), and some 50 Rotary members served as delegates and consultants at the founding of the United Nations. Today, Rotary holds the highest consultative status with the United Nations that a nongovernmental organization can obtain. In this capacity, Rotary has a voice within the UN system allowing access to its people and resources worldwide. PEOPLE: Belonging to a Rotary club gives men and women an enjoyable and organized way to make a contribution to their community. Rotary members meet weekly to plan club, community, and international service activities. By using their skills and expertise globally, members also enhance their professional network, career development, and cross-cultural understanding. Rotary clubs are nonreligious,
non-governmental, and open to every race, culture, and
creed. Members represent a cross section of local business
and professional leaders. |
